A wonderful piece full of philosophy. It conveys a sense of desperation which is the lowest form of hope. Yet like a sigle glowing ember it promises hope of a new fire. Lovely

I get lost in the texture and imagery of your words. The paradoxical qualities of those images are sublime. Thank you for a wonderful poem that strikes at the heart of life.

a very interesting piece, thank you. I especially like \"flicking through pages of poetry to get back to my roots\". Poetry is so universal and relatable that I sometimes feel that reading someone else\'s work brings one closer to oneself. And at the same time, flicking through pages of your own poetry is almost the definition of reflecting. I love this ambiguity.

orchidee said:

Why, oh why, did I turn up, to post some crass, uncultured, unrefined comment, beneath my dignity?! lol.
Cos I always turn up. lol.
Now they call out in street \'Hi Clair!\'
If I got nothing sensible to say - oh well, say it anyway!

Amazing how music lifts the soul to a great state of calm, and sometimes trance like delirium.

Poetic Dan said:

I\'ll need to come back to this as I do read slow but as I skipped back up to get it a favourite... played your tune and then had to go check! It is the dance song on my daughters bedtime play list....

As you said no words can really replace the feeling of love it can give, different under an environment.

Thank you for your magnificent try ;)
Much peace and respect

Beautifully done. Music as much as poetry can carry us to heights beyond. Each of us with different tastes. Beauty and art are in the eye of the beholder. I love all types of music.

I discovered Debussy in the 1970\'s and Clair de Lune has been my favourite piece of classical music ever since.

I like your tribute, it is fitting.

There are so many recordings of this piece, Here are a couple of notable ones you may care to give a listening:-

The Butterfly was Poetry!
junia said:

the line \"it was a thing with wings\" made me think of \"hope is the thing with feathers\" by Emily. is that allusion on purpose? I love how something so small and delightful as a butterfly represents poetry for you. and poetry is very much like hope!

Very good words showing that justice can be true if acted upon without any bias.
